80 cents HITS THE HEARTSTRINGS
As a mum of four boys I am very big on the boys learning that it's good to give. Too me personally Mothers Day means more than my birthday. I guess it's because it's a day made to spend with my kids and being that my birthday is on New Years Day it's a can't be bothered day. Besides no restaurants ever open that day so we can go out for tea etc.
Yesterday was the yearly event where the boys take their pocket money to school and buy the mums a gift from their stall. The boys were super excited and spent so long wrapping their gifts (in Harry Potter paper). After they were done Chayse came and showed me his parcel then gave it a little shake. I could hear coins and he said " I've included something extra this year. I put in 80 cents of my pocket money so you can go out and spoil yourself. I want you to buy something really special for yourself"
Tug Tug the heartstrings were pulling.
I had accomplished my job. He has appreciation. (smile)
Chayse is such a generous boy. He's always making sure everyone else has things before him, even if there were only 3 lollies he would go without. As for Brodie. That boy just can't keep a secret. "You really need some new shampoo, don't you mum?. Maybe in a blue bottle would be nice. Why don't you wait and see if anybody gives you some in a big bottle on Mothers Day before you go and buy it " he says holding a large wrapped bottle in front of me.
